Join us for our One-Year Anniversary Celebration! November 1

Body

Make plans now to join us as we celebrate the one-year anniversary of the naming of our business school as the Donald G. Costello of College of Business.

On November 1, 2023, the School of Business was named as the Donald G. Costello College of Business at George Mason University, as part of a planned gift of $50 million focused solely on supporting undergraduate and graduate student scholarships.

To help commemorate this important anniversary, we’ve put together a series of activities to honor the legacy and vision of our namesake, Donald G. Costello. We’re inviting you to participate—as much or as little as your schedule permits and in a way that is most meaningful for you

  • Now through Thursday, October 31, donate non-perishable food and toiletries to Patriot Pantry:

    • Donations support currently enrolled George Mason University students who are facing food insecurity
    • Donation boxes are located in Enterprise Hall 008 (Office of Student Success and Academic Services) in Fairfax and Van Metre Hall 402 (Office of Graduate Admissions) in Mason Square
  • Show your spirit on Thursday, October 31 by wearing your favorite Costello or George Mason logo wear

  • Volunteer at the Patriot Pantry Day of Service activity on Friday, November 1 and get a FREE Costello backpack (limited to first 300 participants):
